Pecan and maple friands

Unlike walnuts, which were an acquired taste, pecans were love at first bite – I instantly became a fan of their sweet and delicate flavor.These friands were delicious and I loved the pecans paired with maple syrup – they work really well together. Now I have got to try them together in ice cream form, too... Yum! :)Pecan and maple friandsfrom here1 cup (110g) pecan halves6 egg whites, lightly
